They lost the SB in the last minutes after having a 10-point lead in the 4th quarter so I think the expectations are greater than "be in the mix."
I'm sure Shanahan himself wants it.
This thread was started 2.5 years ago. Three more seasons after this one, so half way through the extension.
That probably means regardless of what happens, there's another extension coming, maybe a couple more years.
They have a strong roster but weaknesses that other top teams are capable of exploiting.
That's kind of my point, though. You really can't "expect" a championship. You expect to compete for a championship, and you hope to get one. But you need a lot to break right to do so. Think about all the truly exceptional players and coaches who never won a championship, or maybe snagged one and only one. It's a hard thing to do. Hell, Andy Reid is considered one of the all-time greats, and he has one championship that arguably he shouldn't have because we blew it. He's got a good shot this year, but certainly no one would be shocked to see his team get knocked off by Buffalo, Cincy, Philly, us, etc.
